Strategic Planning

It’s that time of year to
begin reviewing your strategic plan. If you
have not yet developed a strategic plan, now
is the time to commit.

Below are five questions to
consider, developed by Peter Drucker, as an
effective way to begin strategic planning.

What is your mission? Why does your
organization exist in the first place? What
are you trying to accomplish for your
customers?

Who are your customers? Describe the
organization you wish to satisfy with your
actions.

What does your customer value? What is it
that you do especially well that you are
uniquely suited to provide to your
customers? How can you exceed the standards
set by your competition?

What results are you trying to accomplish?
How do you measure success?

What is your plan? How do you go about
satisfying your customers and getting the
results that are most important?
